I was doing my usual Monday morning trawl through my favorite creative blogs when my meanderings led me to a UK photographer and fine artist called Natalie Bybisz, you can check her work out at Miss Aniela. Very stylised and surreal, with an edge. I love the rich imagery, lots of layers of detail, the interesting locations and setting. All of this lends a storytelling element to Natalie’s images. Her photography remind me of a Peter Greenaway film (minus the nudity), there’s a real pictorial sense to her images, they resemble a Baroque or Renaissance painting. Here’s a quote from her web site – some Monday morning inspiration for all creatives;
“Photography is always my ‘living’ whether I am working on personal or commercial work, because it is creating that keeps me feeling alive. I pour my mind into everything I create, and always aim to push the envelope with consistently compelling imagery with the highest production value I can make possible. In my personal work I want to stir people to question and to think, intelligibly – about the problems, the beauty, and the conflict between them, in the world around us today.”

These super moody photographs by Murray Fredericks are simply stunning. I love the striking black and white cloud shots of the angry sky, along with the soft, calm and colourful landscapes. If you would like to see for yourself, head on over to Annandale Galleries, as he currently has an exhibition on until December 10th.

Stop the Press! Carla Coulsen’s beautiful new book Chasing A Dream has hit the shelves, I cant wait to buy my copy. I have blogged about Carla’s photography and her story quite a bit over the past few years, she is such an inspirational woman. Carla packed up her comfortable but dull Sydney life to chase her dream of becoming a photographer 10 years ago, her story gives me courage when I am undecided on whether to take risks and pursue my own dreams no matter how challenging.
Carla now happily lives in Paris, married to a gorgeous Italian and is working as a photographer. Horaay! I love a fairytale ending. Check out her work at http://www.carlacoulson.com/
